"Star Trek icon Nichelle Nichols, a trailblazing actress who was one of the first black women to play a major role on a TV show, has died in Silver City, N.M. She was 89.
As communications officer Lt. Nyota Uhura on the flagship Star Trek series, Nichols’ shared one of TV’s first interracial kisses with William Shatner’s Captain James T. Kirk in 1968.
Nichols also voiced the character on Star Trek: The Animated Series and in the first six Star Trek films.
She was the first African-American woman to have her handprints immortalized at the TCL Chinese Theatre in 1991." -----------------------------
Obviously for all TREK fans this is sad news... RIP

At least 3 left....
Shat, Koenig, Takai
But considering how last week went, I'd be mighty careful not to wear any red shirts this week.

IF you had asked me to put $1000 on Walt Koenig being dead, I would have put it up with a grin, thinking I was going to be $1000 up. Man, that's so weird. Also, I didn't even KNOW about this kid's suicide. That sucks, man.
